Testimonials

Jeff Skouson has been a turning point in my professional career. He has given my voice new life and promise. I am amazed how far my voice has come and look forward to where it will go with Jeff’s help.

Jeffrey is an amazing vocal coach and an amazing vocalist. I don’t like it when a teacher is trying to teach you to sing and they can’t sing themselves. He is by far the most talented teacher I have even been to no – matter where I have been. The very first lesson I went to helped me more than years of other lessons from other teachers. You get what you pay for and you won’t be disappointed with Jeffrey Skouson.

Jeffrey Skouson is one of the most musical vocal coaches out there. He didn’t just teach me how to use my instrument, but he taught me to speak through the notes of a song as well. I consider him a good friend, and a very influential person in the road of my career.

I have had the privilege of working with Jeffrey Skouson and of watching him teach. He is truly masterful at working with singers. His knowledge of the voice is superb and his ability to get the students to understand difficult concepts and apply them is wonderful. He also has a beautiful and well trained voice himself which he uses beautifully in demonstration and in helping the students. He is also expert at applying stylistic interpretation without sacrificing technical vocal quality.

Within minutes of my first lesson with Jeffrey, I was able to go far beyond technique and cut to the core of what my voice was about and implement it’s potential. Most important to me is that Jeffrey has a heart that encompasses the technical training and together gives you a foundation that will last a lifetime. I commend and recommend Jeffrey Skouson and encourage anyone who is wanting to experience their voice at it’s highest potential to share an hour of your time with him. All the best Jeffrey, Gerald White.

Jeffrey Skouson is one of the few teachers that I trust my voice with, and one of the best teachers that I’ve had the opportunity to work with! He has the wonderful ability to bring out the best of my voice, and my singing. It is rare to find a teacher that truly understands the voice, and is passionate about bringing out the best in singers. That is what Jeffrey embodies; that is who Jeffrey is. Working with him has given me a new level of confidence, and has deepened my love and passion for singing. If you want to take your singing to the next level, Jeffrey Skouson is your man!

I am honored to endorse Jeffrey Skouson as one of the most outstanding instructors I have worked with in my 30+ year career in the performing arts. Jeffrey is gifted with a deep understanding of healthy singing, the artistic temperament of singers, and the requirements of success in the competitive environment of vocal performance. He provides encouragement and immediate success with vocal technique. Jeffrey teaches with the highest integrity and approaches his work with honesty, creativity, humor, and with the ability to explain and simplify the singing process to make it accessible to students and teachers of all levels, qualities that are rare in all but the very best instructors.

Hi there, Jacquelyn Holland here. I don’t think words can describe the gift that Jeffrey has given me. He has changed my life at such a crucial time in my career. I was referred to him by several cast members and finally took myself seriously enough as a performer, when I landed the leading role of Donna Sheridan in the Broadway musical Mamma Mia. My first leading role of a Broadway show and I turned to him. I knew I wouldn’t have the stamina and the training I needed to get through our 6 day work week at 8 shows a week without losing my voice. In 2 lessons, he helped me find MY voice and given me the tools I needed to make it through this year ahead with a whole and healthy voice. The confidence of KNOWING I can get through our work week no problem, KNOWING I will not have a vocal strain, or problems. He has bridged the gap between my chest and head and made it one, healthy, effortless, well trained, and fine tuned voice. Jeffrey is a vocal sense’ who totally invests in his students. Finding Jeffrey was fate and has changed my life, and probably given me my future career and job security in this business. He has given me the gift of loving to sing again, instead of praying to get through the next song and the next note.

I wish I could go back and re-sing every song I have sung and re-play every role I have played now that I have studied with Jeffrey Skouson. Where other techniques taught me that my voice had to stop at a certain point, Jeffrey taught me that not only can I keep going, but I can enter a whole new realm of vocalizing that I thought was only reserved for others. Thanks Jeffrey!
